trashin' good times

Y'all must have known from previous entries that we had our photoshoot last weekend!!!

It was super hot and super humid on our photoshoot day but I guess hot and humid is better than raining like a mother father gentleman, kan?! We were pretty lucky the wind at our location was very strong though... cuma downsides: my hair decided to misbehave and main angin so I had hair in my face + hair claws in some of the shots -___-

But wind or no wind, my hair was a whole goddamn mess on that day lah okay!!! You see, I thought it'd be nice to curl my hair for the photoshoot so Nani came over with her Pro Babyliss 30-roller hairsetter to help me set my hair before Dyana came to make me up.

Unfortunately for me, the curls died a very quick death and I suspect it's because the curls weren't set in the curlers long enough (not enough time!!!) + the humidity got to the curls. Urgh. I ended up with limp lifeless hair by the time we reached the location because my hair was freaking heavy and stiff because of the hairspray + I didn't wash my hair that morning because curling unwashed hair is supposed to help maintain the curls better.

HAIZ. Whaaaaat is it with me and hair ah??? Remember I didn't really fancy my hair during my engagement??? BAH. I hope I'm not permanently cursed with bad hair days during special occasions or something because I need my hair to behave on my wedding day okay!!!!! Should have stuck to my natural hair for the photoshoot lor... especially now that it's recovering from its thinning problem (which I blogged about here).

Eh tak sia sia okay I spent $200 on the whole set of Phyto products... my hair (head?) is fuller now and my scalp is not showing as much yay yay (Had help from Avalon Thickening Shampoo to thicken my hair initially, but that product has been discontinued for sale in Singapore boohoo) Downsides of using the Phyto products so far:

(1) my hair doesn't smell awesome after a wash because the Phyto shampoo takde floral smell or what (more like a mild... clinical smell?); and

(2) my hair is much drier than it originally was.

But it's alright, it's okay, baybeh! I'd rather have dry thick hair than thinning hair yang sampai nampak scalp, please. Lesser than two evils ma.

Aaanyway, now that I dah get my frustration about my rambut off my chest, I nak sharing sharing a few behind-the-scene pictures! :D

And yes this is the dress! The dress! Heh.

Actually kan, the inspiration for my dress was this lah kan: 

 Suka sangat! ♥ ♥ ♥

My angan angan was to sew colourful netting under the skirt but it turned out to be quite the challenge because the material of the dress wasn't compatible for such additions :( So I scrapped the idea and told my mum to just fix the bulkiness of the dress. Seriously bulky tahap biadab okay ini dress when it first arrived at my doorstep!!! Suspect kuat ini baju untuk pakai during winter ah actually. So many layers sak!

Can't say I particularly love the dress in the end but I thought the dress looked and felt slightly better than when I first received it after my mum did her absolute best to fix it lah. (Kaulah ratu hatiku, Ibu!) And it turned out pretty cute in the end, yes? Hur hur.

Oh, after much consideration, I also scrapped the idea of having something in my hair! (Blogged about it here and here) Thought my eye make-up was dramatic enough and my dress was "loud" enough so I didn't want to over-accessorize. Takut nampak overbearing pulak! And what with the issue of my maha fail hair segala..........

And that's our awesome photographer Zakaria Zainal doing his ~thang~! 

He was sitting and squatting and lying and walking and standing all over the place to try and get the best light and the best shot okay! Can really see how professional and knowledgeable he is bila bab bab ambik gambar ni semua, and he seems to be a really fast worker!!! I received a few shots ala ala sneak peek gitu via Facebook message the day after the photoshoot and really can't wait to see the rest. 

I look like a bloated whale with greasy hair claws in some of the shots actually but I don't really give a rat's ass because the quality and surroundings very cantik and we look ridiculously happy :D (Well, that's because my mamat couldn't stop goofing around like the annoying bugger that he is and I kept bursting into fits of laughter)

 

Oh, I ordered the super gorgeous rainbow cake from @farahhaffandi on Instagram, by the way! Tasted as gorgeous as it looks - stuffed myself so much, I could have puked rainbows for days. If you're interested to order - or even just to ogle - her gorgeous cake creations, follow her on Instagram please!!! I love her cakes so much, I'm going to dedicate a quarter of this blog entry to show you all her cake creations haha:

Sooooo cantik cantik belaka kan?! Simple and cantik, I very suka.

Her flavours pun always sound so sedap and interesting tau! Even before I can finish saying the names of her cakes, halfway my mulut dah banjir with my air liur seh.

Okay. So. Anyway. Where was I before I talked about air liur banjir..........

Oh yes, the photoshoot. 

We spent about 2 hours plus posing and smiling to the camera until my joints and the corners of my mouth ached. Baru senyum sekejap dah rasa penat! I cannot imagine betapa seksanya nak senyum for few hours straight during our wedding day nanti zomg. Can I choose not to smile on the pelamin and say I'm the silent brooding type of pengantin or something?! O_O

Oh, then the last 45 minutes was spent... THRASHING EACH OTHER! WOOP WOOP.

 

Nak kiss my mamat many many for letting me get one of my teenagehood dreams!!!

Yes, I was so mentel, one of my teenagehood dreams was to have a Trash The Dress bridal photoshoot hahahahaha. (Blogged about Trash The Dress photoshoots here and here) Eh I have another one okay, and it was to have a wedding dress that is not white lol (Well, based on my discussion with the good people of Ishq by Nora Zee, I should be able to realize this other dream as well :P)

Oh, we received some comments from friends saying we look "macam Conjuring" but my mat and I have no idea what that means because we are both segan of horror movies and obviously did not watch the movie. Ha ha ha ha ha.

Anyway, the whole experience was really really really fun but super duper exhausting at the same time!!! One thing I've learnt from our Trash The Dress photoshoot experience:

(1) Photoshoots are mahatron megatron cybertron EXHAUSTING

Oh holy yes, they are! We only photographed for slightly more than 3 hours, wore only 1 outfit and we were already shagged out of OUR MINDS. Cannot imagine how exhausting it must be for couples who opt for 10 million outfit changes and kena photographed for longer hours!!!!! Satu tabik marathon gua kasi sama lu.

(2) Photoshoots takes a whole damn lot of effort and sweat

All those bright, happy photoshoot pictures we see online? Looks easy, looks breezy, but it seriously takes a whole damn lot of effort and sweat. And by a whole damn lot, I mean a whole damn lot of effort and sweat. Especially the sweat. Oh ho ho sooo much sweat.

Kan dalam gambar you'll see the couple posing and grinning away like chirpy energetic idiots and all kan??? But the sweatshop horror that goes on at the back of their necks and their temples and their scalps and their thighs and their freaking armpits... YOU HAVE NO IDEA, MY FRIEND.

(Okay fine, maybe I'm exaggerating a little, because couples who have their photoshoots in air-conditioned locations or during colder weather might not have this issue. BUT WE DID. BECAUSE IT WAS ~BURNING~ when we were out for ours okay)

Effort comes from having to search for and prepare all the necessary props and outfits and miscellaneous stuff prior to the photoshoot and also from having to angkut all your barang barang props while trying to maintain your baju and your hair on the day itself.

(3) It is NO fun when coloured powder gets into your eyes hahahahaha

I think I must have looked like an ikan siakap out of water menggelabah looking for water to wash the powder out of my eyes. Thank God we had enough sense to bring one whole balang of water along for the photoshoot!

Also, rip off your fake eyelashes if you're wearing any before a Trash The Dress photoshoot that involves coloured powder!!! Because the powder will get trapped on your falsies and when you least expect it, the powder will come tumbling down into your eye especially after you blink. NI AMARAN PENTING OKAY GUYS!!!

(4) Cleaning up after a Trash The Dress photoshoot is NO FUN AT ALL

Okay lah, this one expected lah eh. We didn't want to step into the car with our dirtied clothes - obviously - so we had to dust off the powder and change into clean clothes before stepping into the car.

I already preempted that there won't be any nearby washrooms that we can tumpang so I brought along a kain batik to use as a cover while I change. Tapi that part masih okay ah, masih boleh manage ah. It's the damn staining that happens after you dust the powder off tu yang buat songsang!!! Nak try wash off with the water that we brought along pun menyeksa seh so I gave up. After I reached home that night baru I scrubbed myself silly just to get the colour staining off.

(5) Do not schedule a photoshoot during your period / nearing your period. 

My period was due any day after my photoshoot and I felt bloated and achy and ridiculously thirsty thoroughout the shoot! But luckily I wasn't feeling super cranky sampai boleh turn into Hulk (HULK NO TRASH! HULK SMASH!) + my mat kept me very happy and entertained throughout the photoshoot so tak terbawak bawak sangat ah. Heh.

***************

Before I end this post I'd just like to give all my love and thanks to my bridemaids for layaning my requests for opinions and recommendations on our Whatsapp chat group prior to this photoshoot... and a super giant special thanks to the awesome power couple Sham and Aisyah who agreed to help us with the photoshoot at the very last minute!!!!! 

We didn't enlist anyone for help initially because we thought we could manage, but then realized we needed some help at the last minute so Sham and Aisyah stepped in and played their roles perfectly, even though it was a Sunday and they could have rested before the work week started. My gratitude is maha tremendous, guys. 

Also want to give my thanks to Nad, who is the straw to my berry (hahaha), for letting us crash her place after the photoshoot to wash up and have our overdue dinner which we grabbed from Simpang!!! (The guys stepped out to tapao the food because I was in no state to step out in public - my face, arms and legs were stained green so technically I almost did turn into a Hulk in the end ah hahaha)

And now I'm left with one and a half working days before I get to meet all my bridesmaids and see what the hell they have up their sleeves!!! It feels really discomforting not knowing what the plans are for my bachelorette party (because I'm usually the one leading preparations when it comes to planning parties for my friends!) but I know I can trust on these girls to give all of us a really good time.

Well, Nad did send me a text message last night asking whether I wanted a... urmmm, halal or haram party ah hahahahaha. 

I guess we're good as long as I don't end up looking like this by the end of the night?

get your glitter on

Aigooooo why so cute one, I very suka tau benda benda kawaii gini!!! 

Nak pakai for outdoor photoshoot, please!!!!! 

I know I've considered wearing veils and bows and turbands for my photoshoot before but I still belum make up my mind so masih considering all my options ye.

 

Haizzzzz pakkal lah kepala ada satu je, nyah.

Eh tapi kan, on second thoughts, kalau nak beli any one of the above pieces from Crown & Glory macam tak worth it seh after dah convert to SG dollar + shipping. I wonder if can DIY???! Dah nak kena start cari online tutorials ni JENG JENG JENG. Hehehehehe. Eh I tengah semangat nak buat benda DIY walaupun my DIY skills haprak okay! Just did one DIY trial yesterday, in fact:

Okay laaahhhhh. Granted this DIY project is play cheat because it is very chicken mcnugget one. So chicken mcnugget that it turned out pretty well in my hands hur hur. Might need to tone down on the glue and enlarge the size of the letters if I really do confirm this project, though. We'll see lah how my mood nanti.

let's jump for joy!

Omg B, can we have a bouncy castle for our photoshoot?????

Heck, let's have a bouncy castle during our wedding event, PLEASE!!!

I wonder if there's space outside the venue to accommodate a bouncy castle...

(I am, of course, only joking and this will most probably not materialize just like my hopes and dreams for a wedding food truck ha ha ha ha ha but HEY, a girl can dream and my dreams usually involve happy stuff like glitter, rainbows, ribbons, bubbles, sparkles, sunshine AND A GODDAMN BOUNCY CASTLE SO BUZZ OFF.)

OH OH OH, OR!!! A BALL PIT???!!!!!!!

Okay, this one maybe not lah. This ball pit one I want to save for our future anak punya first photoshoot HAHAHAHAHA photoshoot kahwing belum lepas, dah pikir pasal anak punya first photoshoot eh. Podah!

cerita atas bumbung

So what were our plans after we left Jentayu Gallery Wedding Showcase last weekend?

Rooftop barbeque and hostel staycation with some of our orang orang kuat, that's what!

My mat and I rushed off to Shophouse the Social Hostel for our long weekend plans with our orang orang kuat after the wedding exhibition last weekend - we opted to go to a hostel instead of booking a hotel room to lounge around and be lazy and silly this time round so staycation with a difference lah konon! Asyik staycation kat 4-star, 5-star hotels, this time kita tukar angin - angin on the rooftop of Shophouse pulak.

I mean, kitaorang Melayu seh. Atas bumbung pun kita boleh ajak lepak, betul tak? :P

This was before Nani, Poji, Ahmad and Mus (one of the hostel owners who is also my mat's closest buddy) joined us for the barbeque and lepak session... Nina was in KL stuffing herself with Wondermilk cupcakes so she couldn't join us.

We ordered food and BBQ pit package from BBQ Wholesale because it makes things sooooo much easier for us! I've always disliked having to lug around a lot of things for barbeques and there's always something that you'll need to remember, kalau tak, leceh ah nak kena gi keluar and beli - the arang lah, the thongs lah, the firestarters lah, wire mesh lah, what lah. When we ordered from BBQ Wholesale, tinggal choose the package we want, add on whatever additional food items kita nak, and that's it. Everything else is in the package (except the protable BBQ pit itself which you'll need to add on from ala carte) and they'll deliver it to your location with a fee.

It was a very simple and laidback lepak session but I loved every minute of it!!! Took the chance to explain in detail to our orang orang kuat why we're having venue issues but it took all of 15 to 20 minutes before we started chatting about other things - it was great to be able to let loose and not think about the wedding for the weekend ok!

By the way, can I just mention that this rooftop space will be awesome for bachelor and bachelorette nights?!!! Asked Mus whether the space is up for rental for parties and he said yes, which is great because I think the space is awesome for small private events - it is right smack on Arab Street, there's ample tables and chairs, a sink for washing, and you'll get an awesome view of the sky (if your event is at night ah.) If you takut you'll be too tired to trudge back home after the event then you can just book yourself a bed in one of their hostel rooms instead and crash for the night (or do what we did if you're in a big group - we paid for all the beds in the room and had the room all to ourselves)

You can browse through their website here and email them for the rooftop rental rates!

Oh, one of the awesome things that happened that night was us making friends with an Austrian guest who wandered to the rooftop area at around 1am, I think? Everyone else was either sleeping already or not back from their partying so we got her to join us and it was really fun exchanging stories sampai pagi. Sham even took the opportunity to show her his and Aisyah's wedding video by Flipside Stories because we were telling her how Malay weddings work! Sempat betul promote wedding sendiri eh ini pakcik!

Then my mat did something that both of us have thought of doing before - he asked her whether she was open to us bringing her around Singapore... and she said yes!!! So after the night was over (at 5am eh lol), we slept for about 5 hours before starting the day as unofficial tour guides for our new Austrian friend, Katharina. Woot woot!

You see, my mat and I, we've agreed before that once we're married and have free weekends, we'll drop by the Shophouse to mingle around with the hostel guests and then bring out whoever's up for a free ride around Singapore just for the fun of it. But since we were at the hostel over the weekend and we were presented with such a great opportunity, my mat decided to just kickstart the whole thing!

We had a reaaaaally great time because it was so interesting to interact with someone who has different experiences and perspectives and was in Singapore for the first time and now we can't wait for the next free weekend to bring out the next guest that comes to town!!! Which might not be so soon lah since most of our weekends now are filled with wedding-related plans and stuff boohoo.

Really really really love the fact that I'm marrying someone who enjoys doing such fun stuff as much as I do!!! (Or probably more, that over-friendly bastard) Guess this is one of the great reasons why I know he is the one for me??? Hehe. Kekasih-kekasih lama aku mesti dah kirim salam seh kalau aku ajak buat kerja macam gini.

Oh! One of the good things that happened from bringing Katharina out to various spots in Singapore was being able to singgah the kedai which sells these colourful babies!!!

SUKAAAAAAA!!!!! Can't wait to use them babies!!! Sooooo tak sabar ok!!!

Now my head dah start ah planning macam macam for the photoshoot MACAM MANA NI NAK CONCENTRATE KAT KERJA NI. Step concentrate kat kerja in the first place je lol

ZOMG

Guess what my mamat and I did over the weekend??? We watched our favourite Running Man episodes, revised our draft wedding itinerary, recalculated our budget... 

... aaaaand we changed the photographer for our outdoor photoshoot.

Very gatal, I know, but this last minute change, my friend, is well worth a million times over. Because our new photographer for our outdoor photoshoot?

(For better viewing, you can visit his website here and Facebook profile here.)

MAHA LOVE HIS STUFF OK! Reaaally cannot wait for our outdoor photoshoot now!!!

Not sure if I've mentioned this before, but my mum has agreed to sew my outdoor photoshoot dress for me - Have to resort to a DIY dress because I've tried looking online for a nice pretty dress under SGD100 but can't seem to find anything I like with such a budget hence the shameless cry for help to my supermother.

Tapi yang buat lagi exciting is ape tau?! The fact that I've found the perfect dress sample for her to recreate!!!!! Ran through that dress sample with two other dress samples with my bridesmaids just to see what they say and they voted for the exact one I wanted (without knowing that it was my #1 choice) because they agreed that the dress is "very me" :D :D :D

Happy sigh. Really love the amazing wonders of good old Internet lah - I was aimlessly browsing through wedding inspiration ideas and stumbled upon the dress by chance ok. Even found a super detailed online tutorial for my mum to follow step by step after that. So freaking happy!

Going out with my supermother this weekend to buy the fabrics! I am SO pumped to see how this turns out! (Pumped with excitement eh, not pumped with minyak)

tak lekang dek panas, takkan usang dek zaman

I've always preferred modernity when it comes wedding photoshoots but there is no way I can deny how freaking gorgeous and timeless photoshoots that take on the classic theme are!!! Especially those done by the awesome 3.tiga Studios!!! Tengok ni below:

Click image to enlarge.

(Source: 3.tiga Studios)

Definitely the people to look for if you're hoping for a classic old school feel to your make-up and/or photography! Oh, and videography too! Samples here: Teaser - Nadia and Fauzie /// Tanda Qaseh - Muharram and Norseha - Solemnization /// Tanda Kaseh - Muharram and Norseha - Music Video Clip (don't forget to click on HD bottom right, fellas)

FAB OR WHAT, KAN?! I love love love it to the core of my bride-to-be being! Still not something I'd do for myself because I prefer modernity but it's always great to watch or see stuff that are as awesome and interesting macam gini therefore akak suka, akak cinta, akak approve! I know there will be some wet blankets yang tak dapat semalam out there who will cakap ape ni semua, tak penting ah ni semua, waste time and waste duit buat buat ni semua (omg I actually typed that out with my dad's disapproving voice booming in my head hahaha) but that, my friend, is your suar lalam basah ok. Your suar lalam basah which you can go and keringkan dulu ok? And while you're at it, pergi check whether you ada a dusty old stick up your ass ok??? Tak bagus you know ada dusty old stick up your ass, nanti sembelit.

Anyway. It seems like the fab people behind Tiga.3 Studios are the photographer from Aeqmal Huat Photography and the husband and wife team whose wedding pictures I blogged about here (and whose video links are included in the previous two paragraphs.) Always lovely and always refreshing to see pengantins who opt for the timeless classic look and feel for their photoshoots and even receptions, and to quote kata kata pujangga by Dato Siti Nurhaliza and Puan Noraniza Idris in Dondang Dendang, awesome classic stuff macam gini adalah stuff yang tak lekang dek panas dan takkan usang dek zaman!

temasek's me, temasek's you

One of the things that my mat and I have established waaayyyyy early on during our preparations is... the location of our photoshoot!

Case takde hek takde hok, you know I know, chop confirm guarantee seal the deal. If you recall from my earlier entry, Temasek Polytechnic was where we met, and surprise! surprise! (or not) Temasek Polytechnic is the place where we will have our photoshoot!

We took one of Bliss Photocinema's event photography packages that offers 2 hours complimentary photoshoot - provided time and weather permits - so we figured that one of the good things about having it at our campus is the fact that even if hujan, insya Allah we'll still get some indoor shots at our alma mater. I've always been a fan of concrete backdrops anyway so this works out well and good for both of us :D

(Photoshoots shot against nature - oh you know, open fields, forestry, lalang lalang, rumput rumput, the whole works - are always very, very pretty and very dreamy and breathtaking but it's just that I iz very the love when I see photoshoot pictures yang ada the contrast between the warmth and colour of human subjects and the stillness and coldness of concrete. Hur hur. Ok, sesungguhnya I don't know if that previous sentence makes any sense lah sebenarnya kan haha)

Ooh, and still very pleased by the fact that we'll be living opposite the very place where we first met in - gasp - 1 year and 5 months' time???!!!!! EH. Kenapa rasa macam baru je semalam it was 1 year and 5 months to our wedding??? Amacam sekarang dah 1 year and 5 months to our flat possession date ni?!?!?!?!?!

 

IT'Z TRUE WHAT YOUR MOYANG POYANG PESAN, Y'ALLZ. 

TIME WAITZ FOR NO ONE, Y'ALLZ.

Ok lah, dah lah, don't wait wait anymore ah, come I show you samples from wedding photoshoots previously shot at Temasek Polytechnic:

(Source: Weddings @ TP)

And because I am always very takde kerja, siang siang buta already I dah go ask TP's Alumni Office about doing a wedding photoshoot within the campus premises:

 Must remember to submit this form two weeks before the photoshoot :/

Anyway! Sometime last two months, my mat and I took leave and went back to TP to have lunch and jalan jalan - we've done this before for about... 3 times now? Saje je nak feeling student, makan cheap food, reminisce old times and waste leave segala.

The difference between the latest visit and all our previous visits is the fact that this time round we also took the opportunity to physically suss out spots inside the school yang kita nak ambik gambar! My mat also made a brilliant suggestion of printing the school map, marking the spots where we want to ambik gambar at, and then planning our route to minimize time wastage so we can max out our 2 hours. Takut if never plan in advance we might waste our time rounding rounding around the school with no clear route and terkejar kejar the shots that we want. Hehe.

So yay! So brillz kan! I give you five star stickers ok, bb! ★★★★★

Now I also want to claim five star stickers for myself pulak - because I jumpa balik the 2008 blog entry from when we first went back to school together few months after graduation (again, just to to have lunch, jalan jalan and feeling feeling student) because we wanted to trace back all the spots where we bumped or met in school.

So ape lagi? Jom kita walk down memory lane lagi sekali ye adik adik! :D

Oh shit. Better not let my mat see this. Because everytime he sees this gambar he will meraung raung macam lagu New Boyz and give me grief! Hanya kerana this picture will remind him of his pre-Farhana-badan-masih-belum-gemuk-sangat days!!! Hahahahahaha. Don't like that lah B, sekarang pun you masih cun melecun, ape.

After we knew each other, I asked him whether he remembers this selenge bacin sotong kering pun tak bacin macam gini incident, and he said YES. He told me he really thought I was beaming to someone else!!! And got confused bila takde orang kat belakang dia hahahahaha ah yelah aku senyum kat angin lah

FAVOURITE PAST TIME!!!!! Mak bapak hantar gi sekolah untuk belajar, ni pergi sekolah cui bontot orang. Kalau dorang tanya, cakap je lecturer yang ajar hahahahaha

Tak glamz moment is tak glamz. Cannot forget how buruk and PBG I felt at that time!!! BUT IN MY DEFENCE. TP Business School punya jemput jemput pisang was sedap ok!!! Made from fresh bananas, one! Tak sah kalau tak gobble down dengan gelojohnya.

Standard procedure whenever I spot him in school LOLZ

 STALKER ALERT. STALKER ALERT.

My mat told me that during one of canteen instances, one of his friends did tell him that I was staring at him but somehow I managed to avert my gaze just before his friend told him so by the time he looked, it seemed like I was just minding my own business and his friend was just being ultra sensitive to me looking their way. Haha! Padahal, padahal.

Ahhhhh..... the day I put a name to the face that I've grown fond of.

*wipes lone tear*

The first time he acknowledged my presence in school by smiling at me at the bridge linking TP to Bedok Reservoir!!! One of the best damn days in my life, if  I may say so myself. Ada betul lah whoever yang cakap "Never frown because you never know who's falling in love with your smile" HAHAHAHAHA

Note: The reason why he is frowning in this picture is because the weather was pretty merciless and this puteri lilin was feeling very panas berlengas... but I still forced him to take a picture hahaha what what

Oh, and last but not the least...

Adalah harus to have a shot at the spot I wished him happy graduation and where I asked for his number ok! Harus harus harus! :D

All these angan angan seriously making super excitez! Hehe. Shall welcome the long weekend with open arms because we can once again discuss more wedding-related stuff (and catch up on our Running Man episodes, of course.) I'm also a very happy bunny because my mat dah fix tailor appointment for his groomsmen punya outfits next month!!! Shall hustle bustle wrestle my girls to send their kain to the tailor's soon too, and kalau they can make it on the same date as the groomsmen punya even better - boleh turn it into perjumpaan Kahwin Khronicles Klan LULZ

Have fun over the long weekend, gaize! Especially to the three lovely brides-to-be on my blogroll who will finally see your sweat, tears and effort bear fruit and ultimately nikah the loves of your lives!!!!! May the BTB force be with you. Amin!
